GAME SETTINGS
- Higher seeded team may veto 1 map per series.
- First map is picked by the higher seeded team.
- Losing team each game picks next map. Each map may only be played once.
- Valid maps: Ashes, Badlands, Bedrock, Fissures, Frontier, Mirage, Rift, Vault.
-
No repeat leaders in a series. No Voridus.
- Leader repeats are judged on a team level, not a player level.
- No double leaders.
- Accidental pick of Voridus results in loss.
-
No node strat - do not take nodes without the intent of killing Sentinels.
- Exception: you can draw the Sentinels to attack an enemy minibase or units, and still capture the node.
- Exception: Cannon Fodder can take nodes any way you want.
-
1 hour time limit.
- If base and slot building count is even/very close, and neither team has a large army advantage, the game is a draw.
- If one team has an army advantage, casters will send a final attack prompt. The outcome of this last attack determines whether a winner or a draw is called, based on the base/slot building count afterwards.
- If one team has a clear base and slot building count advantage and their opponent is not in a position to even out the game with the next attack, the team with more slot buildings wins.
- Replay match if the series ends on tie. The previous loser picks map in this case.
- No cheating or intentional exploiting of any form allowed.
